The No T$ No B$ Thread
For the 2009 Queen's Birthday game I sat behind the goals at the city end with my then Pies gf. During the warm up shots at goal I looked down for a couple of seconds, probably to look at my phone and the next thing I know there is a Sherrin footy right there in my lap! It landed there perfectly as if Iād chest marked it. No pain, no nothing. Amazing luck, you couldn't make it up. I remember Jim Stynes had caught a ball in the crowd earlier that season so I raised it up and yelled that I was Jimmy to everyone!

They should penalise them percentage.

Some love and appreciation for Max Gawn
We all love the great man. Live every moment he has left in the game in the fullest that you can because these generational guys don't come along often. Our club didn't stand for much and was bereft of character. Forever burned in my mind are Jimmy's words that this kid was going to be something different and challenge the status quo, he saw something in him that he couldn't see himself at the time. I'm not religious but something or someone smiled on us when they gave us Max.

For sure and we've seen in the last decade that clubs apply the 'win at all costs' mentality to varying degrees.

At least you're 30! Plenty of youth left!

And also being defenders they would be used to being accountable and can do a job watching opposition intercept defenders!

COACHES VOTES: Rd 20 2023
You are right on the money. How about Zorko moaning to the media about it afterwards in a similar fashion to last year? Just on Touk though he very much deserved maximum votes. His job on Lachie Neale was the best I've seen this year on any star mid, kept him to 17 touches and got 29 for himself. A massive part of their win and how they have missed him dearly.

So the first section of the SCAT5 test is looking for red flags and these include neck pain, double vision, tingling, seizure, vomiting etc. I'd have thought common sense would have prevailed and that migrane could stand alongside most of these red flags. Without knowing how they operate and not wanting to pass too much judgement, the optics still look terrible.

Really impressed me in that Grand Final. Obviously a big jump to AFL for a ruckman but could be worth inviting to train over Summer?- PREGAME: Rd 21 vs North Melbourne

I don't know enough on the workings of this to openly criticise club medical staff but I think it's beyond that now. The decision may well need to be taken out of player and club's hands as it is a conflict of interest and it doesn't matter if 9 times out of 10 they are doing the right thing because just 1 time is too many. As I said I'm not a doctor but I really don't know in what world they thought it wasn't necessary to perform a SCAT5 test on Aliir. How can you go through all the checks and deem him ok to continue when the test itself can't be done in less than 10 minutes? (Please feel free to correct me if facts aren't straight).- POSTGAME: Rd 20 vs Richmond

Amazing career. One of the greatest spearheads the game has ever seen and we're all better for having seen him play. - Farewell Brodie Grundy
